(Fargo, ND) -- The city of Fargo is celebrating Arbor Day Friday.

About 100 students from Carl Ben Eielson Middle School will each plant a tree in Riverwood Park to mark the occasion. Fargo was named a 2022 Tree City USA by The national Arbor Day Foundation.

This year's honor is the 45th time the city has been given the distinction.
